    Chopping all the bits that would not fit in the splitter into burnable sizes.
    It’s not my fault they built houses 6 meters away .
    On my fourth barrow full few more to go but her indoors made me a brew.

    Six barrows full and I’m maybe halfway through.
    Almost dark so time for a beer ,clippings will do to go round the flowers.
    Lovely smell off eucalyptus from last few bits I cut. FC66AF7F-D949-4F26-B1F7-281F25CCF74B.jpeg

    God bless you, I have no desire to live that close to other roofs.

    Yes, I'd say we have burned much more than normal so far but also have to admit that I have not kept track so can't say for sure how much we've burned except to say I'm sure we've burned over a cord so far. The cold is still yet to come!

    Happy New Year to you.

    I think we're a bit ahead of norm but we've also been a little warmer inside too.

    That's what these slow days are made for, working through the backlog.

    I didn’t have a log burner so I made a small fire to burn wood in . That was the real reason
